Annah has been working on a big leaf project for her science class. She's really enjoyed each part of it! She and I walked around Arrowsmith finding leaves last weekend when it was so beautiful outside. We used a couple websites to identify them.
Krampa had taken her on a special walk around his forest in Indiana over the summer and taught her about a lot of trees growing there, and about how he and his dad and Travis have worked hard over the years to grow many varieties of trees there. She loved that! So, she called Krampa and asked him if he could bring her some special leaves for her project. The two of them really enjoyed going through all the leaves together and using Dad's leaf/tree books to learn more interesting facts about each one and how the various trees are related.
Annah chose how each page would look, and carefully glued each leaf to its page. Then we used my Zutter Bind-It-All to punch and spiral bind the pages together.
She is pretty proud of how it turned out, and was looking forward to sharing it with a group in her class today! What a fun project, and so neat she could share a family legacy.
